修改表SQLite

SQLite支持ALTER TABLE的一个有限子集。SQLite中的ALTER TABLE命令允许用户重命名表或向现有表添加新列。不能重命名列、删除列或从表中添加或删除约束。

您可以:

创建新表作为您要更改的表， 复制所有数据， 丢掉旧桌子， 重新命名新文件。

至少在3.37.0版本，sqlite3支持DROP COLUMN

Kotlin解决方案，基于这里，还要:

确保临时表不存在 修复了检查默认值的类型，因为当它是Integer时返回String类型(此处报告了此问题)。 避免在希望删除的列不存在时执行任何操作。

    @JvmStatic
    fun isTableExists(database: SQLiteDatabase, tableName: String): Boolean {
        database.rawQuery(
            "select DISTINCT tbl_name from sqlite_master where tbl_name = '$tableName'", null)
            ?.use {
                return it.count > 0
            } ?: return false
    }
}

作为替代:

如果有一个带模式的表

CREATE TABLE person(
  id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
  first_name TEXT,
  last_name TEXT,
  age INTEGER,
  height INTEGER
);

你可以使用CREATE TABLE…AS语句，如CREATE TABLE person2 AS SELECT id, first_name, last_name, age FROM person;，即去掉你不想要的列。然后删除原来的person表并重命名新表。

注意，此方法生成的表没有PRIMARY KEY，也没有约束。为了保留这些表，可以使用其他人描述的方法来创建新表，或者使用临时表作为中间表。

你可以使用Sqlitebrowser。在浏览器模式下，对于各自的数据库和表，在选项卡-database结构下，选择Modify table后，可以删除各自的列。

public void DeleteColFromTable(String DbName, String TableName, String ColName){
    SQLiteDatabase db = openOrCreateDatabase(""+DbName+"", Context.MODE_PRIVATE, null);
    db.execSQL("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS "+TableName+"(1x00dff);");
    Cursor c = db.rawQuery("PRAGMA table_info("+TableName+")", null);
    if (c.getCount() == 0) {

    } else {
        String columns1 = "";
        String columns2 = "";
        while (c.moveToNext()) {
            if (c.getString(1).equals(ColName)) {
            } else {
                columns1 = columns1 + ", " + c.getString(1) + " " + c.getString(2);
                columns2 = columns2 + ", " + c.getString(1);
            }
            if (c.isLast()) {
                db.execSQL("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS DataBackup (" + columns1 + ");");
                db.execSQL("INSERT INTO DataBackup SELECT " + columns2 + " FROM "+TableName+";");
                db.execSQL("DROP TABLE "+TableName+"");
                db.execSQL("ALTER TABLE DataBackup RENAME TO "+TableName+";");
            }
        }
    }
}

只需要调用一个方法

DeleteColFromTable("Database name","Table name","Col name which want to delete");
